Setting the Foundation
In this practice with Rachel, we will set the foundation for developing a safe and effective inversion practice. This class targets key areas of the body for inversions: wrists, shoulders, hips, core, and hamstrings. Note: You will need a wall to do the practice.
This can either be done as a stand-alone class, as Day 1 of Rachel's 7-Day Inversion Challenge or as Day 5 of the Daily Dose 30-Day Intermediate Yoga Challenge.

Oh I didn’t like that! Hardest class ever. When I extend arms out with a block and plug shoulders back, pinky working in, I can’t raise my arms at all. Something is “in the way.” And yes very weak. What if I extend out a tad? Then lose some integrity of plugging shoulders in? I’ll play with that more. Same with the block, working thighs in and back with the tilt of tailbone causes some shaky grief. Ha. But, also I sense a bit of a “cure” and healing for lower back pain! Great class, it’s such an emotional challenge to face weakness and discomfort! Love it. Ty.
The best teacher ever! Your cues are perfect! Thank you! Cant wait for the rest of the challenge!
Whether I actually ever make it to inversions or not, I will happily repeat this class many many times. Thank you Rachel!
Great tutorial practice with CLEAR cues. Rachel is so wonderful at explaining placement of hands and feet. She is a gem!
